Soquili Name: Ho'lokle
Temper: Vivacious
Your Beauty Wins Story:

"If anyone ever wishes to bother the ocean and the circle it has..I will stop them myself. You are not kono to the ocean if you only want to ruin the natural beauty of the kai..the ocean. "

He was standing there on the edge of the sand teaching some foals about his home the ocean. Ho'lokle was a very straight forward stallion however he also loved to joke.Sometimes he seemed dull and drab but this ocean did mean everything to him. Slowly he sunk up behind one of the foals and dunked them into the water smiling when he saw her face. "You must never let your guard down remain ho`opono to the ocean and she will reward you" he nods at the filly before retrieving his diving gear and harpoon.

"Who would like to learn how we can protect out way of life?" He started the long and slow process of setting up his gear so that he could dive and stay underwater for long periods of time. He had gotten his gear from the native islanders who knew what he wished to do without even saying a word. They were the ones who had been here long before he had and for that he respected them with every fiber of his being. He longed to be in the ocean he felt free and careless while on land it was the opposite he felt slow and sluggish.

Leaving the foals to there own game he slowly waded into the ocean scanning for any creature that might want to harm him. Grasping his harpoon he dove into the ocean wondering what his adventures that day might find him. He eyes were twinkling as he watched the fish swirl and dance around him he used his tail to steer himself thankful for having some fins. He scanned the ocean floor in search of treasure or trash he could spear and bring back to the surface. This was the life it was his life what more could he ask for? He lived and breathed every moment in paradise who ever said horses cant dive?

"I will teach every kanaka i can about the wonders of the ocean my ocean is your ocean"

Physical Description in writing:

Ho'okele has a oxygen tank and scuba gear that he was given by the island natives. A diving horse may not sounds very practical but when you see one in action that is the amazing part. He wears a fish net blanket under the oxygen tank and even when the tank is off he always has the fish net on his back to remind him of how precious the ocean and his island really are irreplaceable.

There are symbols of the natives that he was given as signs of there appreciation. The woven bracelets on his back legs his shark tooth necklace and the feather on his spear. He has his harpoon incase anything were to happen underwater to defend himself. Plenty of sharks roam the water just off the coast and one must always be prepared for anything. He also wears a pair of scuba goggles when venturing into the sea.

His hair is long and flowing due to his island beliefs even though he spends most of his time in the water exploring deep sea caves among other things it is a deep rich blue color just like the ocean. The tiki and island gods are also very important to him and he hopes his guarding of the ocean will be pleasing to them.

Anything else:

You can add anything or take anything away even change colors if you want to. I just tried to do a basic idea of what was in my head and my ref is not the best. You can do whatever you want for the tribal markings on his front legs i had no idea how to draw tribal. Im not sure if the fish around him would be allowed but i put them there anyway incase since i wanted one to be a humuhumu the native hawaiian fish.

thanks for this chance!

Soquili Name: Jacary Jasper
Temper: Layed back
Your Beauty Wins Story:
Jacary was sitting under an umbrella after a few good hours of surf tie put in. Nothing but her, the waves, the sun, and the salty beach air. Nothing was going to get in this filly's way. She sipped her juice fro the coconut shell and smiled happily. Her dreads were pushed out of her face with her favorite pair of sunglasses and she had been all decked out with her Leis. Today was turning out to be a perfectly chipper day. She lied on her beach towel watching all of the pretty mares and stallions wander along on the war day.

Jacary looked around and shook out her still damp dreads and decided to go wax her trusty surf board. As she made her way over to the stand she took the waxing rag in her mouth and wiped it down, giving it a shine, witch she loved. In a few hours she was going to go hit the waves. Nothing funner than the sand, sun. And the big wave that was supposed to be coming very soon. The hip mare made her way to the snack bard, grabbing an apple from the local native people for energy and went back to the shore line with a cheery trot. As she started out at the Sea and took in a deep breath she managed to straddle her board and doggy paddle out, waiting for the perfect wave. Soon enough a wave came. Jacary got ready and stood on her board.

Everything was going smoothly until a giant octopus sprang out of the water and grabbed her. The spotted mare was taken by surprise but then struggled to get free fro its grasp. She twisted and turned before looking down and saw that her board had been snapped in two. Jacary became boiling angry and bit the creatures arm as it sent her plummeting into the sea below. she then swam to the broken bored and shoved it into into it's weak point, causing it to spew blood. After a while it bled out and dragged it to the shore. Thankfully everyone there liked squid. The people of the town crowned her the prettiest and bravest on the island. Witch she already knew. But hey. Now she had things to prove she was. And they all lived happily ever after

Physical Description in writing: Jacry is famous for her dreads and signature surf board witch is now only half a surf board, witch she take everywhere with her. Her sky blue sunglasses and her colorful leis and sea shells that she decorates with herself with. She also has a starfish that has a tight hold on her flank like a parasite. She doesn't ind. It reminds her on a daily basis shes a star.

Soquili Name: Pendecardiel
Temper: willing
Your Beauty Wins Story:

It was said that the fairest maiden of all was the fairest maiden in the land of the Soquili. That was just a typical fairytale told these days. That story was wrong. The fairest in this story was not at all the fairest known. It was more like the loser of all embarrassments known. Growing up into a teepee of poverty, she did not get much attention from the more... fortunate. She would be ignored by the stallions that she had grown a feeling for to only get her heart breaking like every single time. No one really noticed her, and those who do would often take advantage of her, but since she was so desperate for love and attention, she would be willing to do whatever it took to be loved, by anyone.

It did not take much for her to decide to enter herself into a beauty contest - a contest that she would have truly lost in for she did not have any spark in her, anything. What made her catch the judges' eyes was her simplicity and posture. Truly something that they were searching for. Some of the competition were over doing it, having billion of accessories on. She herself just carried her flowing long red mane with pride and made sure that her flowers were not drooping. For her to be remembered, she gave each judge a simple lei and walked off the stage not to know that she had in fact won.


Physical Description in writing:
          - long red flowing hair
          - wearing four blue-tealish flowers on each side of her head
          - carrying a lei consisting of the baby colors white, red/pink, green & blue by the mouth
          - has two golden-yellow rings around her tail with a strand of seaweed dangling on each ring

Soquili Name: Vincens [A French name derived from the Latin Vincentius, meaning "conquering."]
Temper: Egotistic
Your Beauty Wins Story:

Please tell us about your best use of beauty.

Vincens held back the urge to sneer at the judges in front of him. Why even bother asking that question? Best use of beauty? Had they even taken a look in his direction this entire time? If they had taken a proper look, they would know that he was above all of the other contestants when it came to looks. They were dull, bland, and far too boring. But him? He was gorgeous! He gave the slightest shake of his head, gaze shifting to the other contestants first and then back to the... ugh. The awaiting judges. Apparently these other Soquili were blind as bats.

Or... was this a question about inner beauty or something? 'Ah, right. Maybe that's it...' Vincens blinked as realization came to him. The other contestants had been spitting out stories about that kind of stuff. 'This contest is a total drag. But I want that trophy or.. prize or... whatever it is.' He let out a small sigh, leaning his head down to carefully push his mane away from his face. These judges and their questions were so.. so cheesy to him. But he'd have to just ignore that fact and get on with things.

Winning this thing would be easy. He would just have to play nice, smile a little - scratch that, smile a lot! - and win the judges over with some story or something. Putting on a fake smile for the judges, he started, "Hello there, judges!" Next, he threw in a quick lie, a small attempt at gaining a bit of sympathy and attention. "Sorry, just a bit nervous here, this being my first beauty contest. I probably won't win or anything, but.. well, I'm just glad to be here!"

All eyes on him. Good.

"Anyways! My best use of beauty.." Vincens gave his hoof a few light taps against the stage, taking a moment to think. "I suppose that would be... the time I rescued a damsel in distress? I dunno." He smiled at this, nodding his head to the judges when they inquired about his act. "Yes, I really did rescue someone. A mare I spotted while walking along one of the nearby beaches. I just happened to be in the right place at the right time." Oddly enough, this story was true. Vincens, for once, wasn't lying. "She was a sweet little Flutter, stranded out on one of the lava rocks in the middle of her adventuring. Now, this wouldn't ordinarily be a problem for someone with wings, but she had managed to get her wings soaked while exploring the tide pools! The poor girl was surrounded by water by the time I spotted her. So, being part Kelpi," he paused and flicked his tail a few times, "I swam my way over to help her out. And just like that, I rescued her."

"I'd never seen a happier mare! She called me brave and heroic and - Oh!" Raising a hoof, he motioned towards the coral jewelry adorning his body. "She gave these lovely things to me, a reward for rescuing her. She also gave me a peck on the cheek." Smile turning into a grin, Vincens gave a wink to the judges. "We spent a lot of time together after all of that and she eventually became my mate." Making his way off the stage, Vincens gave a quick look back to the judges and grinned. "Being a good guy really pays off in the end, I guess?"

Question answered, it was time for him to leave the stage and await the results. All done. He had told them his story.

...Well, most of it, anyways. The last part of the story was a total lie. The Flutter wasn't his mate, she wasn't his girl, she wasn't his anything! Becoming mates with the mare? Falling in love? Pfft. He just made that bit up to make things interesting for the judges. The stallion had stolen the jewelry, slipped it right off the mare while she had been resting after a busy night of... uh.. 'rewarding' him further. Claiming the coral jewelry for himself, he simply left. But Vincens wouldn't be telling that part of the story anytime soon, no way. The judges would get something nice and cheesy and romantic, something to win them over and pick him as the contest winner. Maybe they would think he had a beautiful personality or something? Hah!

Physical Description in writing:
- Mane = long in the front, short in the back.

- Ear wings! They're similar to the feathered ones that the Angeni have, but definitely more bat-like.

- Pink coral crown with black pearls.

- Pink coral neck piece with black pearls and jade. The bits of jade are tear drop shaped and hanging off the tips of coral, I guess? The neck piece is kind of similar in shape to a spiked dog collar, with the coral spiking out.

- Pink coral leg piece. No pearls or anything like that, just coral. It wraps around his leg three times and branches off in spikes.

User Image User Image

Anything else: I figure he's the sort of character who wouldn't be above lying and putting on an act to get what he wants. With those head wings of his, he probably has Kalona blood somewhere down his family line. That would probably influence his personality a little and make him a not-so-nice guy. o:

Soquili Name: Bella De Playa (Spanish for, Beach Beauty)
Temper: Sultry
Your Beauty Wins Story: Bella is quite literally, an escapee. When the white-man entered the Kawani lands, they save a figure in the water. Enchanted by the locks of hair and the strings of pearls, they cast a net to take home for the crown. Her curious demeanor attracted her to the net, and just like that, she was caught and hauled onto the ship. When the men saw what she actually was, they attempted to kill her.

With a mighty burst of energy, she broke from the nets and escaped back into the bay, but has never been able to escape the net was almost cost her, her life.

Physical Description in writing: I based a lot of Bella on my personal favorite era, the 50s/ pin-up feel. Her hair is thick, tight curls with streaks of sandy blonde in her hair. The brown is broken rope, and the grey steaks is fishing net (old style, think crusader age thick pirate rope and net), she have strings of pearls strewn over her spikes. On he back foot, there's a tethered rope, there are barnacles / baby coral on it. User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.

Anything else:
Feel free to interpret this as you please, I'm NOT an artist, so they was perhaps my best inerpretation of my own idea, just think of a steamy romance novel about a woman stuck on an island, that's very much the feel I want for Bella. Sultry, sensual, etcetc. Feel free to add anything going along with my theme, a fascinator in the hair would be LOVE, and I'm obsessed with pearls, so feel free to go wild if I win, thanks.

Soquili Name: Theren
Temper: Adventurous
Your Beauty Wins Story: Theren was excited to go to the beach party, but he had no desire to play dress up like a little girl. His friends, however, were looking forward to the contest. Something about a "spectacular prize of a lifetime" or some such nonsense. Really, he'd rather be out exploring than stuck on some stage for a few hours. In the end, a couple pouting looks from his best friend's younger sister was enough to make him feel guilty and give in.

Sitting in the dressing room backstage, all he could do was stare at the piles of junk. There was something that looked like a clown nose, a horribly colored lei, and a neon yellow something that looked rather gross sitting on top of one of the boxes. He sighed and resolved to think of this as another one of his adventures. Nudging the box with the yellow growth aside, he began to search. The light reflecting off of a metal object caught his eye. Moving a hot pink tutu out of the way, Theren discovered that the shiny object was actually a spear. His smile grew as an idea formed in his head. Setting the spear off to the side he began to search in earnest now. Ten minutes later he was ready. The tiki tribal warrior was ready for his stage debut.

Physical Description in writing: A brown, black, and white tribal tiki mask. A long, almost spiky blue mane. A "necklace" of long green leaves on a dark green band. Similar smaller ones on each of his legs. A shark's tooth on a brown band on his tail. A long spear resting by his feet.

Soquili Name: Jezebel
Temper: Shy
Your Beauty Wins Story: Jezebel has always been a shy little girl. As an adult, not much has changed. She prefers solitude to crowds and does not like mingling with new soquilis. That's not to say she has no friends. She has a few trustworthy individuals that she loves to be around. With them, she is not as shy and in fact, talks quite a lot with. So when her friends wanted to go to the beach party, she was excited. As long as she wasn't expected to mingle with the strangers, she would be alright. She actually thought it would be a lot of fun.

But when her friends suggested they enter the beauty contest, she froze. There was no way she felt ok with this. The butterflies in her stomach started adamantly protesting at the thought of taking the stage. She didn't say anything to them, but then again she did not have too. They knew her too well. Her friends laughed off her worries and tried to make her feel less nervous as they made their way to the contest stage. Finally, they told Jezebel that she didn't have to participate, they would not be mad at her or anything.

Jezebel thought about sitting and watching the show. She would be alone in the crowd and that made her feel even more nervous. She was looking out at the assembling crowd when she she caught side of one of the judges. He was stunning, absolutely eye catching. When he turned and caught her eyes, he smiled slightly. Jezebel blushed and ducked back, ending up behind the stage. Her friends giggled at her and went off to find costumes. In a slight daze and busy thinking about the guy, Jezebel followed. She barely noticed as her friends dressed her up. She startled when her name was called and her friends were pushing her out on stage. "Go get him Princess" one whispered.

Physical Description in writing: A long, light blue mane. Several purple feathers, attached to gold beads, scattered about in her hair. A two different pink colored lei around her neck. A smaller, similar colored lei on her front right and back left legs. A silver band of purple feathers and gold beads on the remaining legs and tail.

Soquili Name: Atlantis
Temper: Beguiling
Your Beauty Wins Story:

A flash of gold in twilight, the lustre of a few well placed pearls...the haunting and so very compelling tune of gemstones clicking together while you walk - all tools so very vital to the mission. Small details to make him take note amid the laughter and the gaiety taking place at tonights event.

Him..the mark..the one who had what I wanted. A twist of the head ,a flash of red, contrasting so vividly with the esquisite sleek styling of my mane, tilting my head further and the dancing torchlight flashes against the pearls, setting thier iridescence oh so very briefly afire. I can see him now, that oh so desirable stallion taking notice of me...it is only the first step however, there are many pretty mares here this night - but I must make sure that he returns to his home tonight with me. Me and noone else. It is vital.

I allow him only a quick glimpse, a small disarming look before slipping away to dissapear into the crowd. It is a calculated look - sure to draw him toward's me. No stallion can withstand the allure of a mare who seems interested, most espechially one as well done up as myself.I have taken care not to overdo it tonight - this is a stallion not drawn to the gaudy..but to the simply elegant, riches displayed enough to show status but not to blind those looking.

Predictably the stallion has followed me, moving through the crowd to see me where I stand at the edge of the party. I pretend not to notice as he approaches, give him a demure and innocent look as he nods his head and introduces himself. I know who you are. Tossing my head I allow my necklace to twinkle and flare in the torchlighm jingling with the laughter that escapes his lips at my utterly lame joke. It seems that I have captured the beasts attention - all as planned.

The rest of the night is spent in dreadfully dull but utterly important flirtations, I pose, I smile, I let the light flicker on my jewlerry as a constant reminded of my apprant status. He believes I am his equal..a fellow noble, a member of his caste. Silly beast. But I achieve my goal and when the torches are doused for the night I recieve an invitation to his home.

Giddily both inside and out I accept and we walk together towards his abode. It is there in his home where the item awaits and once inside there is little that can stop me. Do you mind? I ask him That I go and clean up a little bit, perhaps...remove my mask? It is something that he desires..to see me truthfully and without any questions he agree's to my proposal.

Out of his sight I flicker through his home,the pale temptress that he will forever regret meeting. I fill a bag with valuble odds and ends I find throughout my search - gold, shells, gemstones...a parchment with pretty pictures on it. But it is the compass I want - the golden navigator that is rumored to show the direction of legendary treasure. It is well hidden this compass but the information I have spent moon cycles gathering is not pointless and I find it where I expect it to be. The bag and the compass clutched in my grasp I escape out a backdoor, sliding into the night on soundless hooves.

Beauty only run's skin deep is a saying I heard often growing up and I dare say...there may be some truth in that saying.

Physical Description in writing: A sea versioned masqurade/villian mask upon her head, bedecked with starfish, red corral and pearls. BOth a part of her jewlerry and to help hide her identity. A nautical compass in her mouth, red coral armband, Jeweled necklace & Bracelet - those the design for these can be tweeked as you feel appropriate, gold,rubies & pearls however should be the main compnants. A bag of treasure at her feet with shells, a rolled up bit of paper,gold, ruby etc.

Her forelock should be pulled back on one side to accomdate her mask,but more free flowing on the other side,the majority of her mane should be pulled into a pony tail that is pulled to fall over her shoulder. Feel free to take some freedoms with the hair too if you think it looks better - I'm not the best with hair design lol

Soquili Name: Tama - Japanese name meaning Jewel
Temper: Calm
Your Beauty Wins Story:

Tama stood on the beach looking out on to the wide ocean and admiring the beauty it held and how serene it felt to just stand there watching as the waves moved a shore and back into the ocean, however that wasn't the reason as to why he was at the beach for another day. He had come to the beach to look for hidden items that lay deep beneath the warm wet sand that called out to him to find them as they wished to see the light of day once more.

Tama was in the middle of a dig when he heard loud noises coming not too far from where he was, he decided he would finish his dig and then go check to see what it may be and why it was so loud. His dig consisted of another gem and it was that of an amethyst this time, the gem shone so brilliantly and beautifully that the purple just drew you in. Tama took the gem and wove it into his hair and made sure it couldn’t fall out, with that done he then took off towards where the loud noises were coming from. Upon finding the source he noticed there was a stage and around the stage was a rather large crowd, he didn’t know what to make of it at first and so he watched to see what all the commotion was about.

He watched as others came out on to the stage and talked about why they were the way they are and why they think they should win this contest. At the word contest his ears perked, he thought to himself on how he might as well try this little game out and see how it will go. Within seconds he was on that stage looking out across all of those in the crowd and then at the judges. They asked him the same things they asked the others.

“Who am I? You ask. My name is Tama and I am a treasure hunter." he said this and then went on to add, ”As a foal I had many hobbies and liked to do many things, but I had one hobby that stood out among the rest. I had always loved to look for hidden and buried treasure, it didn’t matter what I found as it was something unique and new to me, occasionally I would keep one or two things of what I found and hen give the rest to those who liked and wanted them. Finding that that was the one hobby I loved the most, made me who I am today. Today I still hunt for those hidden and buried treasures out there on that beach and underneath all that warm sand. The finds may not be worthwhile on some days, but the ones that are, are the ones that do make the day brighter. If I manage to find many things in one dig I will give a good chunk of it away and to see the ones with those smiles and looks of pure happiness on their faces just makes my day brighter”. He looked at the judges and then at the crowd once more and continued on with what he was saying,
“The times I do find things I want to keep are the ones I place upon myself, like these jewels in my hair and the pearls on my leg. I found them on two separate days and kept them for myself as I had found myself liking them when I first found them. However I give away more items than I keep for myself and that right there is what bring me my happiness and makes me who I am today.

As to why I should win, well I don’t really know to be honest, I just thought I would come up on to this stage and give this little contest a try. I mean why not, it lets others know who I am even if it is for just this one time and I don’t really mind that at all.”
Tama said all he had wanted to say and hoped he didn’t talk too much, He didn’t seem to care to much as no one was going to remember what all he said after this contest was over. He then left the stage and went to the back of the crowd to watch some more to see who may take the stage next and waited for the judges to make there announcement. Tama silently laughed at himself inside, here he was just another stallion minding his own business going about his way and here he found this contest while on a dig and took part in it just for the fun of being in the spot light for just one night, he sometimes surprised himself.


Physical Description in writing:
Tama has a long and loose pony tail. The reason for it being the way it is, is due to him constantly searching for treasure and his pony tail ends up loosening itself as he digs in the sand to find what he is looking for, causing some of his hair to fall out and the rest to stay in
#9bccdc
The hair band holding his hair is that of a grey.

He has a strand of white pearls that he found on one of his hunts on his front left leg. His other front leg that is lifted has a silver band that adorns it and a silver necklaces with a Peridot pendant in the middle dangling from his hoof.

Around his tail he has yet another silver band,both silver bands he found on the same day out searching the beach and both he still wears.

A silver necklace with an amethyst pendant hangs around his neck and he even has a gold chain that hangs from his left ear.
In his hair are gemstones that are woven in to it. Every time he finds a gemstone he wove it in to his hair.


Any/All Reference Pictures/Sketches: none..

Anything else: Feel free to add any more things to him if you see fit..with that I dont have anything else to say other than thanks for holding this contest.

Soquili Name: Paradise Rain
Temper: Peaceful
Your Beauty Wins Story:

This land is beautiful, the colors are vibrant, the bird song is whimsical - the air refreshing. There is no happiness in life then the simple joy of nature..and it sadden's me when others do not seem to understand this.

It was while I was studying the beauty of a waterfall, meditating on it's power and beauty that one of my tropical friends brought word of something terrible...elsewhere in the forest two leggers were cutting down parts of the very nature I so adore. You cannot imagine how this grieved me and without further delay I rushed to the scene. It was terrible...the devestation...the destruction. Did the two leggers not understand what they were doing? I didn't think that there was anything I could do - Two leggers never listened to us Soquili.

Spotting a fallen bit of wood I slipped it over my neck and invited what creatures I could find to come with me to safety, tucking some stray flowers and plants into my bandana with the intentions of replating them later...somewhere safe.

It was while I was in the middle of all of this that I stumbled upon a lone two legger, whinnying at him I tolled my head, water colored locks flipped back so that I might see him better and...it happened. The two legger seemed struck dumb, he stood and stared and pointed while my animal friends swirled settled upon me. Tipping my head the blaze of color from the paradise plant I had saved seemed to blind him and falling to his knees the man seemed to realize what he had done. I did not want the man to feel so badly - the two leggers really do not seem to understand the importance and beauty of nature the way that we do...and so I stepped foreward to nuzzled him and he reached out to finger the wooden symbol on my bracelet. "Peace" he said..yes peace and standing the man ran back to the other's who were burning the forest. Pointing in my direction.

The burning stopped as the local came to see me, I let them run fingers through my mane, urged the creatures with me to let them touch them, even the flowers and the plants seemed to garner some attention. They called me beautiful and lovely...an aspect of one of thier beliefs and they vowed to leave this particular bit of the forest alone - Perhaps I cannot save all of the forest..but I saved this part and that has to count for something.

Physical Description in writing: A blue bandana around his his head with a flower pattern on it (Think hippy,island style) A bird of Paradise flower, some larger green leaves anda vine is also tucked into the bandana (Artist can have som freedom wit hthe fall and placement of these items, even the type of leaves..all I really want to be there for sure is the Bird of Paradise flower, all the other greenery can be reworked as the artist needs to fit the mane and such). A wooden peace sign on his foreleg , held on by a hemp & bead bracelet.

His mane is wavy and somewhat wild, it's color is meant to represent the wave on the see..darker fading to a near white at the tips as though waves are cresting.

The piece of wood around his neck is just worn - it does not grow on him, it is not a part of him..it just settles around his neck and over his back kind of like the yoke of a harness except..naturish.There is a toucan and a lizard riding on the wood yoke - the creatures he saved from the burning. I would not be opposed to a poison dart frog or some butterflies/bugs somewher on him as well but I'm leaving that up to the artist..I couldn't get them to look right lol

Any/All Reference Pictures/Sketches:
Toucan
Bird of Paradise
Tropical Lizards

Anything else: The concept I had for this design was 'Hippy Enviromentalist' but as I designed him and the story came to mind he turned out more like 'Hippy animal Lover' ...also I learned I can't draw lizards LOL

Soquili Name: Captain Hina Diablo
Temper: Deceiving
Your Beauty Wins Story:

I lost my heart, my home is the ocean

Hina looked up at the crowd, then to the judges. She wasn't really sure what to say right them an there, but she figured she would give it a shot. One more look around, seeing all the fine mares and stallions that were there to impress the judges as well. She was nervous at first, because she didn't know what to say, then she thought of the story that would surly win them over. She smiled gently, then parted her lips to say something. But still, nothing came out. She let out a quiet sigh and looked around. Maybe... It was just nerves? No. That couldn't have been it, She was the Captain Hina Diablo, the ferice blue Devil of the sea. Nothing was suppose to scare her. But i looked like she was wrong. With so many pairs of eye watching her. It had never been like this before. Hina snorted as her faithful parrot flapped her wings. Both Serie and Sanchez were being very quiet, even though... Sanchez never talked. She stomped her hoof and nodded.

The waves underneath, will soon be my home


The Captain parted her lips once more. " I am Captain Hina Diablo." She started Shyly. continue in with her story. " This...is my first time doing something like this, but i decided to do it for my mother. She had always wanted me to do something like this." She hesitated and looked to the clip in her mane for luck, then back to the judges, smiling softly. The parrot flapped his wings again and chirped. " I will start with my beginning." she cleared her throat " I was princess Estella Marie Coordivine, but i no longer go by this name. I go by the earlier stated name, Captain Hina Diablo. It came about this way, because when i was only a filly, My mother would never take me to the ocean. Though it was right outside my window, i was never able to feel the sand under my hooves, or the gentle waves Caressing my fetlocks. I wondered everyday, and asked my mom. The only answer she gave me, was that it was dangerous." She sighed slightly, only from reflecting on a bad memory.

Fall deeper, and deeper, the sirens are singing my song.

Hina wrinkled her nose and opened her jaws again, thinking as she did. " this isn't so bad. I just have to win them over." She scanned the crowd falsely, looking over them, lovingly to the ocean that washed up gently, soothing her shaky knees. " I got older, and she had a wall built, so i was no longer able to go out freely. It upset me for a while, but there was the thrill, of overriding her law over me. It made it almost like a fun game. Each day, i spent trying to trick and deceive the guards that watched the gate. More and more of them were working. When I went out, i would be gone for hours. Whether it was collecting shells, or other treasures that washed up. It was always better than the castle. It got to the point, where i had found a grotto off the coast one day, and that's where i decided to call home." She looked back at the starfish and parrot, then to the her hooves that stayed planted in one spot.

"I'll miss my breath there's no more left, I'll miss the sound of the wind at my back, the depths have a number they call you by name"

One day.." She began to speak modestly about her past. I didn't have a whole lot of friend, and no one was looking, so I had fallen asleep in the cavern. it was dark, and there was a storm. I was a frightened filly with no one to turn to, then when i thought it was going to be the worst day of my life, I met Serie, the parrot. He landed on my neck and perched there, as if he were trying to become a safety blanket. Ever since he's been with me. the starfish on my rump just happened to stick there one day, and well.. the rest is history."

Fall asleep, Davey Jones calls you. So fall asleep, fall asleep and dream"

Hina figured that her story was getting kinda long, and that she needed to wrap things up. These were always just about smiling, and short stories that would swoon the judges. " As for today, I sail the seas. I still keep in touch with my mother after she willingly let me go. She was worried, so she gave me my father's sword to hold onto for protection, and gave me a ship. I told her that I didn't want her gold though. My goal is to get my own. I also. Decided to do this..because I want to be beautiful like my mother. And it would mean a lot if i won." She stated softly before bowing her head courteously. " thank for for your time." she whispered and stepped off the small, wooden stage, an walked to the shore of the ocean.

All that i know is gone, Take what is left of me

Hina stood there quietly, before she opened her lips, not to speak, but to sing a song that she had known for years. " Yo ho, yo ho a pirates life for me." Her voice was soft and sweety when she sang, her voice echoing across the ocean as she scanned it calmly.



Physical Description in writing:

Soquili Name: Asuyeta
Temper: Honest
Your Beauty Wins Story:
Her friends convinced her to go. She didn't really seem keen at first but she did feel like she needed a holiday. Asu loves the beach, the roaring of the water, the feel of sand beneath her hooves. It had always been her true calling, the sea. Things have been a bit miserable back at 'home' perhaps it's time she moved on, the drama shouldn't follow her here.

Eagerly she stepped into the foam, she felt the cool rush against her legs and sighed, happily flicking and dipping her tail into the water, her fins cupping the liquid and then releasing it back to the ground. She looked around finally spotting a pool of water which sat undisturbed. Walking over to it she peered in, spotting her reflection. Her eyes were deep blue, mane tousled softly from the salt of the water and her headdress sat plain yet simply on her head. "You are very pretty" she heard a voice speak. Startled she jumped up, looking from side to side "W-who said that?" she began to back away. "Don't worry" It called again "I only wanted to tell you you're pretty." She relaxed a little, but still looked around alert "And who ARE you?" A small figure flitted down to her "I am me!". The tiny bird jumped about, twitching, fidgeting restlessly. "Oh.. a bird" She lowered her head to the ground "I am sorry, I wasn't expecting much company here.." "It's alright, but you are very pretty." Asu smiled "Thank you little bird.. how nice of you!" content with a reply it quickly flew away, without a single goodbye.

"What a strange creature" Asu tilted her head, before her friends called her away. "I suppose.." she started taking a few steps "I should go back to my friends." she took one last look into the water, smiled then cantered off to greet the others thinking; "How nice of that bird to call me pretty. No one has ever complimented me before, I should make a habit of complimenting others as well after all.. it's such a lovely feeling."


Physical Description in writing: Long-ish blue hair with a trendy blonde fringe. Adorned in a pine needle headress with a small bird (or even a shell). Her tail has extra fins on the side to give it a more unique shape. Her legs have added blue.

Soquili Name: Lulani
Temper: Modest
Your Beauty Wins Story: A Tale of Hope and Encouragement (shrunk to shorten the page)
Lulani was once a simple koi, not unlike the school (of koi) he shared the chilly water of the lake with. Their days were spent living: eating small worms, algae, or treats of popped peas children would come and drop on the weekend, as well as admiring the gleaming scales on one anothers' bodies. Lulani, however, was not content living the same day over and over again. He would swim round his classmates, admiring the lush grass just over the banks of the lake and wonder what the rocks just below his body would look like if sunlight shone to that depth.

One day while making his rounds, he glanced up to the heavens, over the horizon of the waterfall which caught little interest from the koi and was in awe when his eyes landed on a tendril dancing over the edge of said waterfall. As if out of place, the small green vine danced languidly, amongst the rushing water on either side of it, curling and twisting, almost beckoning him. As fast as he could, he gathered himself and swam off to find his closest friend, a small sand colored koi.

"Hey, Kalin, do you see that?"
"See what? Why weren't you at the Pea Gathering earlier?"
"I wasn't hungry, but look, come see this, it's beautiful!"
"Lulani, you know better than to wonder off, what if you got trapped on the other side of the rock wall or worse, got eaten?"
"I know better than that, but seriously, it's ---"
"No, stop this Lulani. Why can't you be like the rest of us?"

Hurt stung his eyes and cheeks and he could take no more of his friend's words. He swam off, pouting, seeking someone, anyone who would listen to his story of the beautiful discovery. Before long, he ran out of steam, drifted to the surface beside a tall pair of reeds, and looked on to the tendril.

"Ain't it something?"
"What? Who said that?"

Lulani glanced around, worry filling the pit of his stomach. He saw no one, but yet the voice spoke to him again.

"The tendril, I saw you looking at it earlier. You like it, don't cha?"
"Yes, I do. I'm sorry, but who are you?"

The voice was gone, but replaced with the motion of the water as the two tall reeds began to bend.

s**t! It's a heron!
"Hey, hey, slow down there, Small Fry."
"Please, please don't eat me!"
Laughter. "I'm not here to eat you, would have already dun it if I want'd to. No, what I want is for you to know that there's more than juss a tendril up there, waitin' on you."
" 'Awaiting' me? What do you mean?"
"Trust me, once you see the whole thing, you'll have a whole new definition of the word 'beautiful'. Just swim up there. It's all your's, Kid."

And with that, the great blue heron flew off. Soon, after digesting the bird's words, Lulani began a physical regimen to which the other koi laughed. He wanted nothing more than to see what existed beyond the end of the tendril and all that stood in his way was the waterfall. Forever tall, he jumped as high as he could, to little avail.

He's so small!
What would possess him to do such a thing?
He must have eaten a rotten pea.


He ignored their taunts, using them to fuel his exercises. He would make it to the top, one way or another. With or without their blessing.

Nearly a year later, Lulani was still jumping, swimming, screaming to the Heavens, he had not given up. But today was different, he'd seen that heron again, atop the waterfall, resting on a rock. His eyes were full of mockery, looking down over the cliff at him, as if saying, What, you're still all the way down there?

Back pedaling, he reared his head and shot forward like a rocket, eyes closed and head full of dreams. How beautiful the rest of that tendril must be. No doubt existed in his mind, that it truly was the most beautiful thing he would ever see. Taking a breath, he dared to open his eyes and saw himself soaring, up and over the waterfall. He flew over the tendril and the gorgeous lotus that was open to the morning light. His heart caught in his throat and he landed gracefully in the water, just past the flower.

"You made it, Small Fry, but I don't think I can call you that anymore."

Lulani wondered why his body was no longer passing through the rushing water, and saw something in his reflection that didn't belong to him. Scales, long whiskers, is that me? Yes, he was no longer a tiny koi trapped in a lake full of non-believers, he was a dragon. In his new form, he strode closer to the edge of the waterfall, looked over and called out to his old school.

"Find something beautiful in your life and let that beauty drive you."


Physical Description in writing: Lulani, having begun his transformation from koi to celestial dragon, represents a bit of both creatures. Upon his forehead he bares scales (blue like his body) that lead into a mohawk (white like back fin, reference), much like the fin on his back. On his snout, he's grown a pair of whiskers (reference), longer than that of a koi, but smaller than those of a water dragon. He wears a sash or scarf (reference) over his shoulders representing the tall waterfall he had to swim up/ jump in order to become a dragon. The lotus flower wrapped around his tail represents both elegant beauty and rebirth/transformation, as Lulani has seen and felt. I would like, if possible, if the additions (scarf/sash and lotus flower) could be 'ink painted' on, as this is a legend and has an old, artful feeling.

Soquili Name: Leighlani
Temper: Accepting
Your Beauty Wins Story:

I bring you warm and gentle greetings. My name is Leighlani and it is a pleasure to meet you all. It is to my knowledge that you wish to know of my story, in which I am happy to oblige.

I was the youngest of three foals, the older being rambunctious, twin brothers. I don't have to say very much about how our parents had their hooves full. They still managed to give the time to love us, despite having to keep my brothers in line. They weren't abusive, but knew when to be strict, especially the time my brothers had a mountain lion chase them back home. It was a very scary experience, but our parents managed to chase the predator away. Although my brothers were troublesome, they were fun to be around and quite entertaining. They might have gotten in trouble a lot, but they knew how to watch out for each other and for me. I loved my family with all my heart.

In fact, I loved my parents so much, I lived with them well into adulthood. My brothers left when they were rather young, but if that was their decision, I wasn't going to force them to stay. In fact, I stayed so long, my parents forced me to leave by running me off. I was so rejected and heart broken, I resided in a cave for some period of time. After some time, I came to the realization that my parents only chased me away because they loved me and they wanted me to find a life and possibly a family of my own. So, I finally left the cave and roamed the lands. I met quite a few soquili here and there, there were some nice ones and some not so nice ones, but they were both new experiences.

As I ventured, I spotted something extremely beautiful. It was a pink flower. I didn't know what it was called, but I just had to have it. So, I took two of them. But I had no way of putting them into my mane, where I wanted them, at the time. Eventually, I found a pair of songbirds, who kindly helped me weave the flowers into my curly mane. Sometime later, I came upon those creatures, I believe they were called humans, who randomly gave me bracelets of flowers. I have no idea why they did to this day, but I still thank them for the lovely gift.

That is my life, I do hope that you enjoyed it.

Soquili Name: Syrridan
Temper: Pessemistic
Your Beauty Wins Story:

I don't know why you would want to hear my story. Its not that great and its not like I'm going to win anyways. But... if I must...

I was the only child born to my parents. Well, that's not entirely true. I had an older brother, but he died of a sickness when we were foals. Because of this, my parents doted over everything with me. It was so bad, they did absolutely everything for me. I guess I couldn't do anything for myself. It would make sense really. Anyways, as I grew, I wasn't allowed to stray or wander too far from either of my parent's sides. They freaked out when I would just stand behind them and they couldn't see me. So, I wasn't an adventurous or curious foal. I figured this was what other foals did, so I didn't complain. I wasn't allowed to play with other foals either, my parents thought I would have caught some sort of horrible disease, so I could only watch from a distance as they laughed and played.

I kept growing under the shelter of my parents. Even well into adulthood, my parents wouldn't let me go off on my own and I really didn't want to go either. With all my parents "teachings", I knew I couldn't do anything on my own. Eventually, I managed to gather some courage and left my parents. I was scare, I knew I couldn't find a home on my own, so I didn't know what I was going to do. I just ventured the land, sleeping where I could. I lived a solitary life as well, though I did want to meet other soquili. I was just too afraid of doing it, I didn't make any effort to actually do so.

In my hermit lifestyle, I let my mane get long and unkempt. The bangs grew into my eyes and flying around in every which way. I had a small bit of luck and found a nice trinket. I guessed it was made by those human things since the wooden part on it was carved in an intricate design. It had a spiral shell hanging from it, teeth decorating the corners and was tied with a thin vine. It was rather pretty, so I kept it. I haven't found anything like that since.

Well, that's my dull life, I guess I can only hope you like it. I highly doubt it though.


Physical Description in writing: Semi-long lavender colored mane, it has no particular style to it, with exception is it being rather long.

Soquili Name: Addica ADDICTION!! 
Temper: Vibrant
Your Beauty Wins Story:
((Keep in mind pretty much any time i hear the word beach i can’t help but think of the movie lost boys. Crazy I know but . . meh))

NOTE WRITTEN ON MY IPHONE. 

Addica sighed as she looked at her mother and father walking in front of her while her sister walked broodingly beside her. They were on their annual family vacation or . . .at least on their way to being on their annual family vacation. Luckily it was a new place this year, not like the lake that they had been going to since she was a foal. Honestly it was getting really old at this point. This new place was some place called “the beach" not just a beach mind you but rather "the beach". Of course it was near the ocean and apparently a lot of young mares and stallions her age went there for the summers. This admittedly sounded fairly fun because perhaps there would be some cute stallions there as well.  lord knows there wasn’t any where she was from.  Only thing is she wished it wasn’t so far away, it seemed like they had been walking forever which normally wouldn’t have been so bad but her ultra long pink, blue, and lavender stick straight mane was dragging on the ground and collecting twigs and brambles. 
“Are we there yet.” Addica grumbled interrupting her parents as she pulled to get her mane lut of a bush.  Her parents were reminiscing  about their days of visiting the beach when they were teens.
“Almost.” Her father said then went back to telling some story or another  that addica decided wasn’t worth listening to.*
An hour or two later after nearly five days of travel time from the plains they came to it. "The beach", as they stood on a ridge overlooking it all. It was really pretty and there was an awful lot of soquili her age to play-ummm hangout with she corrected herself. 
“Well what are you waiting for? Go ahead!” her mother said giving her and her sister a nudge with her pink muzzle. 
With a little leap addica galloped down the slope to the soft sand. He sister went her own direction. 

Back at the family pond Addica had just known all the soquili in her area her whole life, Same with the soquili at the lake. Her parents knew there parents and so on so there was no making friends it was just being friends. 
Now however she would actually have to try and make her own friends.  Not knowing thing one about this she trotted right on up to a large group of rather pretty stallions and mares that she thought looked like they were having fun. 
“HI” she said rather cheerfully. 
The group turned and looked at her standing just outside of their circle in unison almost. Suddenly Addica didn’t at all feel like being looked at, well at least not in the way they were all looking at her. 
“All I said was hi.” She said quietly thinking maybe they had misheard her and thought she had insulted them. 
Then a mare with rather pretty short bright yellow hair chuckled and replied rather haughtily “And all I’m saying is who groomed you? ” The mare then laughed some more. She was soon joined by most of the group laughing at her.  “is your two legger blind?”
Addica looked down at herself. She was a mess. Her ultra long mane which in the clear waters of her pond back home was not a problem was now a tangle of sticks leaves and mud, and the rest of her wasn’t in much better condition.  Truth be told she had never been actually groomed because her family had never been around two legers well at least not any who would groom her.  She suddenly wished she could shrink so she settled for backing away instead as they just kept right on laughing. She was so distracted her didn’t see the hooks that the humans nearby used for fishing and backed right into them. They pierced her delicate fins and flesh. 
The group laughed harder and trotted away from her.  She tried to untangle herself but alas it was no use the hooks themselves didn’t hurt much but when she tried to pull against them they certainly did. 
“You know there is an easier way to do that?” said a male voice carefully she glanced up to see a stallion a bit older than she was looking down at her. 
“Do what?” she asked afraid he was there to laugh at her too. 
“ Piercings. “He said then began to bite the fishing lines with his teeth so she could get out.  It was then she noticed that he had little bits of metal stuck in him as well. 
“Soquili do this on purpose?” she said a little shocked as she began to walk very carefully away from the hooks. 
“Well not all Soquili just the cool ones like me, and definitely not like those jerks you tried to talk to. That was rough I kinda saw the whole thing. ” He replied rather confidently. “Come on fallow me. You can call me royal” He said then started to walk away.
Addica fallowed him as she really didn’t have any other choice “ Royal? That’s an unusual name”
“Yea my name is Roy but ive been known to be called a Royal pain soo royal just kind of stuck as a pretty good nickname.” He replied 
“Well its nice to meet you royal im Addica but what about these hooks?” she said a little worried as she continued to get her hair caught in things.
“ I could pull them out myself if you want but my two legger is much better at it.” He replied as he looked back at her “and im guessing she will be able to do something about your hair as well it seems to be causing you a lot of problems with its length.”
“My hair?” she replied a little worried. “I can’t cut it my mother would never forgive me.”
“Well that puts a damper on things but my human is smart Im sure she will think of something.” He said with a smile. 
Eventually they came to a waterfall and beneath it was a human wading about in the water collecting rocks. Royal whinnied and nodded toward Addica. The human came up and very slowly approached her with her hand out. 
“it’s all good. Just let her pet you.” Royal said 
Addica looked at the human cautiously but had no reason not to trust royals advice so she pressed her nose into the humans hand gently. The petting actually felt rather good.
Eventually after they were comfortable with one another  the human coaxed addica into the water and began to wash her with scented soap and slowly remove the hooks. Eventually all the tangles were out and they reached an understanding despite the language barrier that Addica’s hair was not to be cut. 
“Your hair is so bright.” Royal notted with a large smile. “your actually really pretty when your clean.-I mean not to say you aren’t pretty when you aren’t but-i-i'll just stop now . .heh“
Addica just smiled a looked down at her hooves  
For a long while royal and the human just stood looking at addicas lengthily stick straight hair.  First the human attempted braids but royal stopped her, then they tried a bun but that looked ridiculous as well.  Suddenly  a cockatoo squawked in a tree  and the human took off into her hut. Soon she came out with a comb a torch and a large chunk of beeswax.  Then indicated to Addica to lay down. Royal was tad puzzled but understood what was happening in a way. 
Carefully the human melted the wax and combed Addica’s hair upward like the feathers on the cockatoos head. This also revealed her intricate neck markings. 
“its gonna be awesome! Trust me.” He replied. 
About two hours of styling later Addica finally went to see her refection. Her hair was amazing! She turned this was and that. 
“I do love it!” she exclaimed and hugged the human. 
after a momet or two more of inspection she decided she already had the holes .  .why not at  least ask about it.
“ you said only cool soquili have priceings right?” she asked royal 
“yea?” he replied 
“Well am I cool enough now  to have any?” she asked shyly. 
Royal just smiled and grabbed the case of metal pieces to give them to the human.  Before long addica couldn’t help but stare at herself and marvel at how much she had changed in a few hours.
“you look Amazeing! Come on lets go back to the beach.” He said.
Addica looked nervous. 
“Don’t worry about them Addica. I don’t want you to miss the dancing because of a bunch of jerks.” He added.
“are you saying you would like to dance with me?” she asked with coy smile
Royal smiled roguishly “maybe I am you’ll have to come to the beach to find out.” Then bolted off down the trail. 
She raced after him for once her hair not tripping her up it felt really great. Eventually she caught up and they got to the beach and saw that the dancing hadn’t started yet everyone was just swimming including the group that had hurt addics feelings earlier. The males were splashing about and the female were trying not to get their elegantly styled manes wet. Almost instantly a plan was formed in her mind. She shared this plan with royal who happily agreed to help. 
Royal went out into the water toward the group and began to tell them that they shouldn’t stray past the reef because of a certain huge fish that could eat them. The group laughed at his story.
“NO its true!” he said “You can tell its coming because of its huge brightly colored dorsal fin.”
The mare with the short yellow hair laughed and looked to her mate. Who was a rather  large stallion.
“You aren’t afraid of this reef monster are you?” she asked cuddling up next to him.
“Pish hell no, and even it were real I bet I could kick its butt!” he replied confidently. 
“Then prove it.” Royal said
“I will!” the stallion retorted and began to swim rather far out past the reef. 
Meanwhile addica who had snuck off out of sight and slipped into the water some distance away then swam back completely submerged, popped the top of her mowhawk above the water and began to circle the stallion in the dark water. Her hair thanks to the loads of wax looking very much like a very large fin of a very large fish. The stallion began to panic soon the whole group was panicking for him, all except for royal who heroically charged out to save the stallion. It wasn’t long before addica pulled royal under the water as he dramatically flailed about. The stallions used this as a distraction and fled toward the group. Adica chased him with her mowhak above the water toward the group.
“TAKE HER! IM TOO PRETTY TO DIE!!” the stallion shouted pushing his mate into the water as he charged past her toward the shore.  
Addica finally ran out of breath and surfaced along with royal and the two began to laugh hysterically. slowly the group began to figure out they had been pranked and in the mean time drenched. Defeated the group left the water and went back to their humans to be re groomed.  needless to say they were a lot nicer after that incident.
Addica and royal however After sharing a surprise kiss went to the beach themselves and danced the night away. this is also where royal gave her the nickname addiction after he decided he couldn't stop kissing her.




*she’s a teenager cant you tell?

Physical Description in writing:
Any/All Reference Pictures/Sketches:
Mowhawk general reference for style and yes i like the front to come out rather far. 
Mohawk bangs reference yep just the bangs from this one
Note on mohawk: The pink and blue i used are the shade i want the purple however should be more lavender. it should also be rather huge not so much fluffy but definitely tall.
see the way her hair is syled under the mowhawk? the little swirls and jazz? yea i would like those as markings down the side of her neck. matching colors though please
The stuff on her legs is supposed to be pink and blue tyedye. Not like spray paint . . . I always said im not an artist.
all the little black dots are piercings (they can be silver or pink or blue or even lavender they can all match or be diffirent) I would like her to bee smiling and if at all possible I would like the speckles on her back to become little pink and blue scales.

Anything else: CC any items you think would look good. ummm shes supposed to look friendly but . . .ummm  . ..yea. i want the snake eyes and the large grin but just friendlier.
